I have found some help with over the counter caffiene pills to help the unbearable drowsiness that ADs cause. It is hard to go through the day always yawning, and rolling my eyes back in my head. Has anybody had a similiar experience or tried NO Doz or Vivarin

I just drink coffee myself but have to be careful not to drink large amounts because I am on an MAOI. Caffeine is the most widely used stimulant in the world, and I think it makes sense to use it if it works for you. Don't get too carried away with the pills, though, as you can run into toxicity problems ingesting large amounts of caffeine.Todd
